In case somebody else needs to make their own, I made this .STL file for the Aurora drive bracket (Sun 540-2570) used in Sparcstations 4, 5 and 20 (I've tested this only in my SS4). My machine came without the bracket and I had to buy mine all the way from US.

I still haven't figured out if I could install Solaris and NeXTstep onto the same disk so I just swap the disks. Good enough for now and now that I have the brackets both disks can reside inside the case and I won't be misplacing them :)


My machine is missing the SCSI cable and backplane for the secondary disk, but at least I can use the space for storing the disk now.
